About us

Do you think you may have a cavity? The Centers for Disease Control report that more than 80% of people will have had at least one cavity by age 34. Although having a cavity can be painful and inconvenient, it’s important to address this common problem in order to prevent further tooth decay or damage. Luckily, the team at A+ Family Dentistry has over 20 years of experience in providing dental fillings for patients, and we can help you with your cavity and filling needs.

The Importance of Dental Fillings

Dental fillings are used to restore teeth that have been damaged by decay. When a tooth is damaged, bacteria can enter the tooth and cause an infection. If the infection is left untreated, it can lead to tooth loss. Dental fillings can help to prevent further damage to the tooth, improve the appearance of the tooth, and protect your oral health. If a patient waits too long to get a cavity filled, and the decay spreads, they may need a more intensive dental treatment instead such as a root canal or tooth extraction.

Signs You Need a Dental Filling

Not sure whether you should ask your dentist about a filling? They can tell you for certain during your regular exam, but there are several signs that you may need a dental filling, including:

Will My Insurance Cover My Dental Filling?

Since dental fillings are typically considered to be necessary to maintain oral health, many insurance plans will cover fillings. However, every dental insurance plan is different, and whether or not your filling is covered will depend on your insurance provider and your plan. Our team can work with you to determine whether your filling treatment will be covered and to what extent.
